Default electric noise

you all know the sound of electricity(?) when turning the igntion to on, right?
The very high pitch noise that bothers you..well it does to me lol
For some reason, i hear this noise even though i turned on the engine. I stop at the stop sign and i hear if i try, and it bothers me. I think i hear this noise from the bottom of the car or back. Doesn't seem like its from the front side...
ANy hep??

^^ I am having trouble deciphering your question.

It would be helpful if you could provide more detail.

Are you hearing “pop sounds,” or a “whine noise.”

I'm guessing you're hearing the fuel pump.

Idon't know the sound of the fuel pump..
It's really high pitch sound but not loud. It's kind of like a fast small mosquito flying around your ears. i hope that's a good description..haha

Also my assumption.

Park in a quiet place with the motor running. Walk around the car. The sound is coming from the front or rear?

I know what he's talking about. He's talking about the ultra high pitched sound that you hear when an electrical component is turned on (it: tv, radio, etc). Before when I searched the problem, they were saying that it was coming from the head unit and that it was bad wiring that's causing the problem or something. Unfortunately, I did not want to go through the hassle of removing the center console. They also suggested turning the radio off, but that didn't solve the issue. The sound is VERY faint and you sometimes would have to tilt your ears a certain direction in order to hear it haha. My friend's G37 has the same problem but he only hears it sometimes.

Or maybe you have a mosquito in your car haha http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-10921_7-6541745-4.html

I honestly don't remember man but I wouldn't put too much faith into that being the problem. If it has something to do with the headunit, then you can hear it even when the engine is off, but that's not the case here. I just learn to ignore it since I only hear it sometimes, or get an exhaust.

i don't hear the noise from the headunit while the engine is running. The noise has gotten lil bit louder and my reception got lil bit bad also... i'm running a dodge avenger antenna which was fine for a few days.. I don't thing antenna is the problem.
